Route FAQs
Where is the start/finish line?
The IGO Start/Finish line will be at the Ozone Reserve.
How far apart are the pit stops?
There will be pit stops all the way around the course – you will come across these roughly every 5km! There will be water/snacks, toilets, something fun to do and a team of people there to cheer you on!!
Pit Stop locations will be released closer to the Event.
How will I know where to go on the Course?
The course will be clearly signposted with directional markers between pit stop locations. You’ll be provided with a head torch for added visibility and we will also have safety marshals along the course to give you extra direction and make sure everyone stays on track.
What happens if I can’t complete the walk?
If you find that you can’t walk any further, there will be an emergency phone number on your event lanyard – please call this number to let us know and tell us where you are on the course. We can either drop you further along the course at another pit stop, or at the IGO Start / Finish Line. Alternatively, if you do decide to leave the walk part way through the course by your own means, please call us to let us know that you’re safe.
There will be support vehicles and cyclists on the course with you along the way, you can also talk to them and arrange a ride.
St John’s Ambulance teams are also on hand along the course to provide assistance should you have any injuries or health concerns.
Can I walk with my dog?
For the safety of you and other participants no animals are allowed on course.
What is walking etiquette?
Be polite and friendly towards all the other walkers out there! You are all walking to support a wonderful cause – keep that in mind while you’re walking and cheer each other on!
Also, remember that you will be walking through residential areas and that those residents will be sleeping! We ask that when you are walking through these areas, you be respectful and keep noise to a minimum.
